Question 26 • Mathematics I

What is the midpoint of the x -intercepts of f of x is equal to open paren x minus 4 close paren times open paren x plus 4 close paren ?

Answer
A
negative 4 comma 0
B
2 comma 0
C
0 comma 4
D
0 comma 0

Explanation

The x-intercepts occur when f(x) = 0. From (x − 4)(x + 4) = 0, the intercepts are (4, 0) and (−4, 0). Their midpoint is ((4 + (−4))/2, (0 + 0)/2) = (0, 0), so the answer is D, (0, 0).
